Mail merging - getting peoples names to appear when I send bulk email
I am sending a mass email of sorts, I want the people I am sending the mail to first name to appear at the top of the letter.
How do I mail merge, or have first name appear when I am BCC emailing 20 email addresses at a time
AFAIK, there's no built-in way to do an email merge in Apple Mail. There are third-party bulk mail programs such as Direct Mail which will do what you describe.

In my Mail program (4.6), OS10.6.8, can I send bulk email bcc? If so is there a limit to the number of names/addresses that I can send?
To add the BCC field to the message window, create a new message, click the 'three lines' button near the to and from fields & select the 'BCC Address field' or choose the 'customise' option. This button may be a 'gear' on the older OS (I don't recall for 10.6.8 Mail).
The BCC field is more likely to be limited by the email server than Mail app. If you add hundreds of addresses (or use large groups with many addresses) the email server may assume you are sending spam. Sometimes it causes the server to drop the message or bounce them, different providers also have different rules, so you need to use bcc & ccc with care.
If you plan on doing mass mailing you would be better with a service that handles it correctly for you (i.e. sends multiple messages without using ccc or bcc). -
What gives? I cannot get track names to appear on recently burned cd's. Just downloaded latest version of iTunes. I'm at a total loss. Have Googled- tried several things to no avail.
Go to the iTunes folder (it is in Music folder) and do this:
1. Back up your music
2. Delete "iTunes Library.itl". Then, open iTunes again and it should work -

For ex. The subject of my email was "List of kids dancing this weekend". Then i would compose my email and send it to the recepient. They responded to my email with the same subject "List of kids dancing this weekend" but the content of the email was the email I received from somebody else months ago. This "phenomenon" happened serveral times already. Please help!

Turns out the auto-complete database is a SQLite DB stored in this folder. Probably the ownership and/or permissions are messed up on your system. Mine (under Snow Leopard) show ownership by me and rw privilege for all files in that directory, including MailRecents.... -
None of my emails are being sent. I'm getting an error about my smt address being incorrect but I don't know how to correct it or why it's suddenly wrong. This started about 3 weeks ago but I just realized it today. Can anyone help me figure this out?
Contact your service provider.
I have Verizon FiOS service and this month, Verizon migrated their service over to a more secure service that uses SSL and different port numbers. As a result, the old mail configuration became obsolete and if it's not changed gives the same error that you are describing. Verizon's customer support page notes the changes (and they've been sending out e-mails). -

I don't have a signature set up, but did a little research. Someone posted that these will show up when I send an email to myself, but will not show up when sent to another person. I sent a test email to a friend to check for sure.

I use a gmail account for my mail. When I send an email I sometimes get multiple duplicates (up to 10-12) of the same sent message saved in my sent file. help
Did you check your user name and password in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your email account, tap SMTP, then tap the primary server name. Make sure the settings there are correct.

I have an Apple TV 2nd Gen, iPad 2 and can't get the icon to appear when i swipe from left to right. What am I missing?
I am able to get the 'Home sharing' 'user and password on my Mac.
Also using IPad 2 I am able to get the ITunes to accept the user name and same password as the Mac.
However, the only way I can see the 'Home sharing; icon is in Music on the Ipad. When I tap on the Icon it asks for a password.
When I give the same password, it is rejected.
Help!!!!
JaxxdiggsPersonally I think the iOS devices are poor at reconnecting - Airplay establishes that a link is available but when the iPhone/iPad has been away from the house and rejoins the network i think AppleTV already thinks it's connected with a different IP address and fails to recognise it has joined the network again with new credentials.
Something along those lines anyway.
I find that a combination of restarting AppleTV, router and iOS device tends to fix it, but not for everyone.

When I send a email, the people get it with my daughters email as the one who sent it. I have checked all the settings ...help
Does your daughters email address show up as one of the options in the From line as discussed above? If so, try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!
